NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — The New Orleans Police Department is trying to identify and arrest a man who is accused of shooting a woman on North Rampart Street. The case is the latest one to roll on the Wheel of Justice.
According to police, the attack happened around 2:30 a.m. on May 27 in the 900 block. The NOPD also released security camera footage that shows the suspect leaving the area.
Police say the man and woman began arguing as they passed one another on the street, but the confrontation escalated and became violent when the man pulled a gun and shot the woman in the abdomen.
The man appears to be wearing a white t-shirt in much of the footage. But at one point, according to police, he put on a dark-colored jacket.
The woman survived the attack, but police have not released any additional information on the extent of her injuries or her condition.
